Higher Trefreock and Garden Walls to Front

Higher Trefreock is a house and cottage that has been combined into one residence, along with garden walls at the front. It was built around the 1840s and extended in the 1870s. The structure is made of ashlar stone, featuring dressed stone segmental arches over the openings and large dressed quoins. It has a slate roof with hipped ends and brick stacks at the ends.

The building has a rear wing that projects to the right, which has a hipped roof, and there is a further two-storey range on the right that was originally a separate cottage, also with a slate gable roof. The layout is double depth, with a central stair hall leading to two reception rooms on the left and one room on the right, which has a passage to the rear and a service wing in the projecting rear wing, creating an overall 'L' shaped plan. There is another extension set back on the right that includes a one-room cottage now part of the main house.

The house is two storeys tall with a basement and features a symmetrical three-window range with original 19th-century hornless 16-pane sash windows. The ground floor has two sashes flanking a 19th-century four-panel door with a semi-circular fanlight that has intersecting glazing bars and a dressed stone round arch above. There are three sashes on the upper floor. To the right side, the cottage has a two-window range with an entrance on the right, a 20-pane sash on the ground floor, and two 20-pane sashes above.

Inside, the main range is largely intact. The reception rooms on the left have plaster cornices decorated with scroll patterns, balls, acanthus leaves, grapes, vine leaves, and egg and dart motifs. The chimney-pieces were replaced in the 1970s, while the room on the right features a 19th-century Delabole slate chimney-piece. The service rooms at the rear include an intact larder door. There is an original open-well staircase with open-string, square balusters, and ramped and wreathed rails.

The stone rubble garden wall at the front is also notable. This building is located near the site of the earlier manor house of Higher Trefreock, of which few remains exist. It was illustrated in "The History of Port Isaac and Port Quin" by Dr. Frederick Trevan, published in 1833-34.
